The clip, shared online, quickly drew attention on social media platforms, with many users expressing amusement and appreciation for Kidman's unfiltered moment. Her remarks were widely shared and commented upon.
"She makes me want to wear a wig and get drunk," one fan commented on Instagram, echoing a sentiment of playful admiration. Another user described her as "such an icon." The phrase "This is Versace. Have fun. Let's party!" became a quoted favorite among commenters, with one noting, "My new life motto."
Other reactions highlighted specific moments from the interview, such as the "HUH?!" soundbite, with one user writing, "Oh she had a TIME." Many praised Kidman's relatable persona, with one fan writing, "I'm living for Nicole. She's the prettiest, most real and fun, down-to-earth Hollywood lady and cameras love her too."
The actress's appearance at the premiere was a significant event, marking a reunion with co-star Sandra Bullock for the sequel to the beloved 1998 film "Practical Magic." Kidman arrived on the red carpet in a striking sheer black lace gown by Pieter Mulier for Atelier Versace, styled by Jason Bolden. The dress featured a thigh-high slit, and her blonde hair was styled in voluminous curls.
In "Practical Magic 2," Bullock reprises her role as Sally Owens, with Kidman returning as her sister Gillian. The film follows the sisters as they navigate their family curse while attempting to lead normal lives. This project marks Bullock's first film in four years, following a hiatus from acting. The sequel is set 25 years after the original and is based on Alice Hoffman's 2021 sequel story, "The Book of Magic." Original cast members Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest are also set to return as the aunts of Kidman and Bullock's characters.
